As the talks began between groups to try and figure out if they could have a common ground and maybe help each other. There is a lot of tension in that room, no group trusts each other, Vanguard annoyed by the careless and unserious behavior by the Tenno. But as these talks are happening there are constant battles across the system, each force trying to gain an upper hand on the opponent. Somewhere on Nessus a lone Guardian was exploring the scenery around him when he encountered another fireteam that he knew from before. The three would often tease him as he was fairly new as a Guardian and they would tutor him. Two Titan females, one human and the other an Awoken and the Warlock was a human. It didn't help that he did develop a crush on one of them, but their flirtatious teasing didn't help him a whole bit. Female Titan Phoebe, the Warlock Eloise and the Awoken Titan Limnea. Eloise was the less flirtatious one and the sweetest of them all, he began developing feelings for her when they were training him. While Phoebe and Limnea would make the training rather uncomfortable, Elouise was serious, cool and often supportive and patient with him. She was an excellent teacher and he learned enough from her that he was able to fend for himself. 

Phoebe: Well, well, well. I didn't expect to see you here little guy.

Owen: Stop calling me little guy and what are the three of you doing here.

Limnea: But you are so cute when you are embarrassed so we have to keep calling you that.

Elouise: We are here just doing some patrols, looking around, nothing all to special. What are you doing here?

Owen: Nothing, just traveling around, taking a couple pictures and slaying some Vex.

Limena: Aww, how cute. Could you show us some pictures?

Owen: Sure, it is mostly of the environment as it is quite beautiful.

Owen shows them the pictures that he took with his old camera from the Golden Age, this had a vintage effect on it with black and white. It made everything look nicer. Phoebe took a long look at one of the pictures. She examined it for quite a long time.

Limnea: Can we look at another picture Phoebe? Holy moly, studying that damn photo to the last pixel aren't you.

Phoebe: Sorry, it is just that I see something in the back, in the foliage. 

Owen: What? 

Phoebe: It looks like a person. 

Owen grabs the camera and looks through it, then start looking at more of the photos and the same figure is always in the back of the shot, the only ones that it isn't is when he is standing at a cliff and taking a photo of the large Vex structures. A chill went through him. 

Elouise: Have you got yourself a stalker now?

Owen: I hope not. I mean, why would anyone stalk me? 

Limnea: Cause you are so damn cute, that is why. 

Owen: Look, it isn't funny. I don't want a stalker right now, who knows how crazy they are.

Phoebe: Could it be your ex?

Owen: You really think that I had a ex?

Phoebe: Fair point, you are hopeless. 

An arrow lands in between the group that then explodes in some kind of purple energy and their whole world goes black. They feel asleep and when they wake up, they find themselves tied up with some kind of string, it was tougher than steel. Owen notices someone standing facing away from them. It was a feminine yet, alien looking creature, it wore a cloak over it's head and a strange bow on it's back. It looked through his camera, shifting through the many images like it was familiar with, like it had used it before even though most people today wouldn't know how to use it. The figure had sand like skin with brown details and shoulder pieces and the head cloak were orange. He is trying to figure out what happened. They were talking and then that arrow landed and everything went to black. What kind of arrow was that and was that from this creature. It has a bow so maybe it is. Could this be his stalker. Phoebe starts waking up, letting out a loud yawn.

Phoebe: Damn, that was a good rest. Huh?

She tries to extend her hands but they are tied, the creature realizing that they had woken up looks at them. He is now capable of getting a better look at it.

 At first he thought it was some kind of Vex, but upon closer inspection it couldn't be. It approaches them, crouched slightly, it's eye locked onto them, like a hunter. It's head was only inches away from Owens, making him uncomfortable.

Limnea: Listen bitch, if you hurt our little Owen, I'll kill you. Whatever you are, I'll kill you. 

It stand up and appears to be laughing, but no noise comes out. It walks over to Limnea, face to face with her, taking it's bow and aiming at her head, but Limnea was unfazed. There was rustling coming from the nearby foliage and the strange creature turned to face the direction but lowered it's bow as another even stranger one came out. 

With each step it took it left a flower behind that quickly disappeared. 

Limnea: What the hell is this, a collection of freaks. Is this you buddy or something?

The two beings walked up to each other and touched their foreheads together while caressing each others face. It looked romantic and as if they were communicating.

Phoebe: Oh come on, like seriously, get a fucking room you two.

Elouise: Shut the hell up you two. Do you two know in what kind of danger we are in?

Limnea: Relax, I'll just break out of this. Hngh... Damn this string is tough. 

The pair then turned their attention to us, more importantly to Owen. The female one quickly released him and gave him back the camera and then pointed at itself and the other one. At first he didn't know what they were trying to say but eventually caught on what it was trying to say.

Owen: You want me to take a picture of you?

The creatures nodded and got into a pose, hugging one another and locking gazes. He gulped and crouched down to take a good photo, or maybe a couple. He shot a couple under one angle and moved to another, the creatures stood still, only changing poses every so often. The trio who were still tied up looked in shock, they couldn't believe what was going on. Two beings that couldn't even be described in fairy tales are posing as a lowly couple and having a photo shoot. Ever so often Owen shows them the pictures he took, nodding if they approve and sometimes shaking their heads at the ones that need to be deleted. And after half an hour of just taking photos they signal something to Owen.

Owen: You want me to print them out to you? But how the hell am I supposed to send you them?

The two aliens looked at one another, he does have a fair point. Then just shrugged their shoulders. 

Owen: How about I come and find you once they are done? You'll stay here right?

The creatures nod, it seemed that they were intent on staying on this Vex infested planet. But from the many corpses of the Vex here and there it seemed that they didn't care that they existed. The female alien let all of them free, removing the bounds that held them. Phoebe was hesitant on attacking but they didn't do anything to harm them. As they turned to leave the couple gave them a one last goodbye wave. 

Limnea: What the hell was that?

Phoebe: I don't know, am I dreaming.

Elouise: Whatever those things were, they didn't seem hostile. But their abilities are worrying, if that thing did fire that arrow, then what kind of arrow was it. 

Phoebe: And judging by the many corpses that are littered all around, I don't think they are ones to mess around with. But they were a couple I guess, judging by their behavior. 

Elouise: Owen, you really aren't serious on coming back here to bring them the photos?

Owen: I am, they seemed nice enough and plus I guess I promised them that.

Phoebe: What if it is a trap?

Elouise: Yeah, I don't trust them.

Owen: If they wanted to kill us they would have done it long ago.

Limnea: I guess you are right. But for now, let us head back. I need a good drink and maybe some action, if you know what I mean. To help me clear out my head.

Elouise: We know what you mean and we don't need to know. Some things are better kept secret and not shared around.

The group summons their sparrows and flies off, they will report all of this, but later on.

Back in the negotiation room

Osiris: What do you mean you won't help us?!

Lua: Like I said, we won't be helping you out for personal reasons and some other. 

Osiris: Why? You would be off great importance to us and protecting humanity. Why not help us out.

Michaele: Dude, we won't be helping you and that is it. We also won't be fighting against you so you should be thankful for that. If we cross paths then we will help you out, but we won't go out of our way to come and help you at any given moment. 

Eris: Your powers would prove useful, but if you do not wish, then we can't do anything about it. 

Lua: Listen, first, we would want to hear out Lotus, then we would then have to decide if we would like to be in an alliance with you.

Mara: This Lotus that you speak off, who is she?

Lua: That is not any of your business. I know that even Lorelei might be disappointed but it is what it is. First, if you became dependent on our help and we were to disappear what would you do. Secondly, it might bring in unwanted consequences.

Zavala: If creatures from your world come over, are you then going to help us out.

Ceres: Gladly, I doubt that you would have any ability with dealing with a Void angel, Sentinels or hell, even the Murmur. 

Eris: Murmur?

Lua: Not important right now. For now you nee... What are you doing here?

Lua stared out into the dark corner of the room and everyone turned their gaze there. Ceres, Michaele and Vombask retreated into their frames, drawing their weapons. 

Zavala: What is it? What are you looking at?

From the Darkness came out Mara, swaying her hips seductively with a wicked grin on her face. But this wasn't Mara, Mara was sitting at the table with everyone else. 

Mara impostor: Hey kiddo. 

Lua: What do you want now? 

Mara impostor: Hahaha, just came in to check on my playthings. It seems that you are getting quite along.

Mara: Who are you?!

Lua: That is him. The Man in The Wall. What are you here really for? 

Man in The Wall: Nothing, am I not allowed to be here. I do as I please and I can be wherever I wish. Just came here to warn you. They are coming, they will come in through the cracks. 

Lua: Who? 

Man in The Wall: Everyone, one by one, they will come in. Now, I must go. I hope you get along and good luck-

The fake Mara disappears leaving everyone puzzled. Mara felt freaked out for the first time in a long time. 

Lorelei: What was that?

Lua: Our 'friend'. I guess we will have to stay with you. If what he said was true, then get ready for a war that you never saw. 

Zavala: What do you mean by that? 

Everyone comes out of their frames.

Ceres: Our enemies might start flooding in, I guess we will have to exchange info about them, but you won't be able to deal with a couple of them. 

Osiris: Your enemies? How many do you have now?

Lua: A lot and they might be worse than yours. Anyway, we won't be in an alliance still, but we will help you out wherever we can. Expect a lot of info flooding your systems and you are going to have to share it amongst your Guardians. 

Eris: You still haven't explained anything, who was that really.

Lua: Don't worry, you will be able to read about him as much as you want and it still would make you confused and you would ask even more questions. Just so you know, what we think is normal is completely absurd for you. 

Zavala: Send it then, I am looking forward to working with you. And who knows, we might just make our enemies our allies for a short period.
